Question

Yes that all sounds wonderful Pontious but what has that got to do with accelerated commands or to that end command upgrade? Yes EK get lots of lovely a/c which they haven't got enough cabin crew ( apparently 750 short at the moment will rise to 1500) and also not enough Capts or to that end FOs. You sound new and in the honeymoon period and I'm glad you are enjoying yourself from the sound of it however watch this space, you won't be so happy when they will not upgrade you because they can't be bothered to upgrade a FO !!!
As an aside with all these new a/c:
1. Where will all these new Capts come from?
2. Will they have to pass the upgrade interview before being considered?
3. Is it true that lots of 330 FOs are taking their names off the 340 list as they don't want to fly with Direct Entry Capts?
Any thoughts?
